Welcome back to Mr. Blasberg's Best-Dressed List. It's been a dreary couple of weeks in fashiondom; first, last week, fashion and film legend Elizabeth Taylor passed away, and then, especially in New York City, it seems we haven't been able to shake the winter blues. (Can you believe it was actually snowing in April?) Such skies were reflected in a few of our favorite looks here in New York, particularly in the comfy, chic ensembles put together by models Alana Zimmer and Britt Maren: high-waisted, wide-legged jeans and a roomy babydoll dress, respectively. Not that everyone was hiding from the weather. Carol Alt and Michelle Monaghan turned up the star wattage at Manhattan galas, and still-fabulous Frederique van der Wal proved that it would take more than a few puddles to keep her out of a fabulous peep-toe pump. It wasn't gray in northern California earlier in the week, when the Balenciaga exhibit debuted in San Francisco, drawing a perfectly prim Mia Wasikowska and Miranda Kerr to the festivities. And before you get restless, we have some good news: When the weather is this bad, it can only get better! That's why we're taking a hint from Alek Wek's hatted look and starting to move the beach gear out of storage.
